As we approach the 1-year anniversary of the Rock Town Hall blog – an impressive and fun year of growth and outreach, I might add – we feel it’s time to reach out to a broader, less-inhibited audience. We’d all like an influx of some fresh meat, wouldn’t we?

For the last year we’ve kept true to our mission statement, keeping the focus on spirited music discussion. We’re doing what perhaps no other blog is doing, and we think we can do it even better. In the coming year we will stick to our mission, but expect some changes. Our numbers have gotten so large that we’ve been approached by more than one potential partner to help take us into the big money circle. We’re told that we just need to inch those hits up a tad more and “be willing to make a few compromises” to the format, which frankly, you probably won’t even notice. To reinvigorate passionate discussion and attract new revenue opportunities, we’re going to spice up the Halls of Rock.

You may notice slight changes in the tone of our Main Stage threads, but don’t ever think we’re about anything but the rock. Without further ado, let’s roll away the stone and let loose with some hot rocks!
